LAKE WORTH, Fla., Dec. 9 (UPI) -- A Florida church said a 100-foot-tall cross being erected on its grounds will contain a T-Mobile cellphone tower to boost local reception.
John Sasson, executive director of Epiphany Lutheran Church in suburban Lake Worth, said T-Mobile is building the cross and will lease a patch of church property as a result to bring a small amount of income to the house of worship, the South Florida Sun-Sentinel reported Wednesday.
"A lot of people don't know our church is here," Sasson said. "This is advertising we would not have been able to afford."
